Cardinals' belief in Josh Rosen as quarterback of the future is unwavering

Arizona Cardinals rookie quarterback is not having a great season statistically. Forced into duty because of the poor play of Sam Bradford after only three games, his numbers are bad.

He has completed only 55 percent of his passes for 2,042 yards, 10 touchdowns and 14 interceptions. Four of those interceptions have been returned for touchdowns. He has been sacked 35 times and his passer rating is a meager 66.3.

Some fans have begun to question whether he has what it takes to be a franchise quarterback, but that belief in the organization has not changed.

Steve Wilks said he considers Rosen to be the future after the game. General manager Steve Keim said in a radio interview two weeks ago “there’s no doubt” Rosen is going to be a franchise quarterback.

Offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich is not worried at all. “This kid is doing fine,” he said last week when he met with the media, referring to Rosen the way he always does. “This kid is doing well.

“Trust me, this kid is getting better every week. We just can’t show you all the time because it doesn’t show in numbers.”

Leftwich insists Rosen is going to be fine.

Everyone in the organization understands young quarterbacks need help and need time. he hasn’t gotten much help this year and time has to happen still.

Everyone in the building still thinks Rosen will be a very good quarterback.
